Manager, Tax U.S.

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The description includes a summary paragraph. We need to use

for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include sections only if posting has real specific content. The posting includes a summary (job description summary) which could be "About the role". Then responsibilities listed. Required qualifications and preferred qualifications. There's no explicit "Skills" separate but could be part of qualifications. There's no Benefits, Pay, Schedule specifics. Pay: they mention "The posted salary range is the expected salary range for this position." No actual numbers, so we should not create Pay section because no specific salary range given. Benefits: none. Schedule: none. So we will have sections: About the role (summary), Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe combine Required Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications? The instruction: Use headings for Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We have both Required and Preferred qualifications. Could put them under Requirements (or Qualifications). Probably "Requirements" for required qualifications, and "Preferred Qualifications" could be under Qualifications? But we have both headings available: Requirements and Qualifications. We could put Required Qualifications under Requirements, and Preferred Qualifications under Qualifications. That seems appropriate. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. We must preserve all substantive information. Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So responsibilities list items: each bullet under responsibilities. Also required qualifications list items. Preferred qualifications list items. We need to use

  for prose. So summary paragraph(s) as

  . Also maybe some paragraphs within sections if not list. We must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Not present. We must not invent or summarize away detail. Keep all details. Let's extract the summary paragraph: "JOB DESCRIPTION SUMMARY: The Manager, Tax – U.S. will support Pizza Hut’s U.S. and global tax function by assisting the Senior Director and external advisors with tax compliance, reporting, planning, controls, and process execution. This role will help establish and operate standalone U.S. tax capabilities with outsourced preparation to advisors, as Pizza Hut transitions to an independent entity, partnering closely with Finance, Controllership, Legal, Treasury, FP&A, and external advisors to ensure accurate, timely, and compliant tax outcomes. The role requires strong technical tax knowledge, including US international tax calculation knowledge, hands-on execution, sound judgment, and the ability to operate effectively in a lean and evolving environment." We'll put that in a

  under About the role. Responsibilities: The block after RESPONSIBILITIES: includes several subheadings: U.S. Tax Compliance and Filings, Tax Provision, Reporting, and Controls, Tax Planning, Research, and Business Support, Audit Support, Risk Management, and Governance, Cross-Functional Partnership and External Advisor Management, People Leadership. Each has bullet-like sentences. We need to turn each duty into

• . Could group under each subheading? But we only need a single
  • list for responsibilities. Could we keep subheadings as

    inside? The instruction: Use

    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we should make a list of duties. Could break each sentence as list item. Might be many items but okay. We need to preserve all substantive information; we can keep the subheading as part of the list item text (maybe bold?). But we cannot add extra tags besides

      ,

      ,
      • ,

        . We could embed the subheading as plain text inside

      • . That's fine. Thus for each bullet we create
      • with the sentence.

Preferred Qualifications list: - CPA, Master’s in Tax, JD, LLM, or a related credential. - The posted salary range is the expected salary range for this position. Ultimately, in determining pay, we'll consider the successful candidate’s location, experience, and other job-related factors. The last sentence about salary range is not a qualification; it's about pay. Since we don't have specific numbers, we should not create Pay section. But we could include that sentence in the Preferred Qualifications? It's not a qualification. Better to maybe omit it as it's not substantive for qualifications. However the instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. The salary range statement is substantive but we cannot create a Pay section because no actual range. Could we include it as a

        under Preferred Qualifications? It's not a qualification but it's still info. The instruction says include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. The posting states "The posted salary range is the expected salary range for this position. Ultimately, in determining pay, we'll consider the successful candidate’s location, experience, and other job-related factors." That's not a specific range, it's generic. So we should not create a Pay section. But we still need to preserve the info? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; but also says never create Pay section unless posting actually states them. It does state something about pay, but it's not a specific range. It's still a statement about pay. However the instruction says never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state them (though vague). But also says never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD"). This is similar to "commensurate with experience". So we should not create Pay section because it's filler. So we should drop that sentence entirely? That would lose substantive info. But maybe we can incorporate it into a

        under Preferred Qualifications? It's not a qualification but maybe we can put it as a

        after the Preferred Qualifications list, still within the Qualifications section? The Qualifications section heading is allowed. We could put the salary statement as a

        under Qualifications (maybe after the list). That would not be a Pay section. That seems acceptable: we keep the info but not as a dedicated Pay heading. Thus we will have Qualifications section containing Preferred Qualifications list and then a

        with the salary statement. Now we need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown. Structure:
